Title: WALNUT CHOCOLATE RUM BALLS
Categories: Desserts, Nuts, Candies
Yield: 1 Lot
1 c Walnuts, ground or
- finely chopped
2 c Grated "German's sweet" or
- bittersweet chocolate
1 1/2 c Sifted confectioner's sugar
4 tb Rum
Cocoa powder
Combine nuts, sugar, and chocolate. Moisten with rum
to form a stiff dough. Form into small balls and roll
in cocoa to coat. This recipe is not only simple, it's
flexible. It can be made with other kinds of liquor
(amaretto, sherry, and Southern Comfort work well),
nuts (almonds or pecans, for instance) and coatings
(ground nuts, finely grated coconut, etc.) and always
comes out tasting great. Adding small chunks of nut
for texture is also effective.
